Ice Climber and TMNT Hit AU Virtual Console

The headline says it all really. Nintendo today updated the Australian Virtual Console service with two more NES titles - Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Ice Climber.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles was first NES TMNT game, and was a single-player action game that allowed the player to switch between each of the four turtles at any time to utilise their skills. Donatello's Bo staff, for instance, is slower than Leonardo's katanas, but has greater reach. As you'd expect, it's up to the turtles to rescue April and take down Shredder.

Ice Climber stars the mallet wielding Nana and Popo, two characters that you're more likely to know from their appearance in Super Smash Bros. Melee than from the original 1985 title. A vertically scrolling platformer, as the name suggests the game charges the player with climbing to the top of a range of icy mountains. You can read our full review here.
